(pronounced as "the Notch")

Macbook's (in)famous Notch doesn't bother me the most of the time. Once this happens or I need more screen's space for a while, I want to be able toggling/removing it in efficient and prompt way: either through a hotkey or through my own automation.

Sounds this familiar, zNotch is more likely a 💯 choice of yours as well as mine.

Sandboxed. zNotch doesn't require any system permissions and runs right away after installation.

Signed by Apple. zNotch has passed all Apple's checks required to receive a security signature. No warnings from Apple's Gatekeeper about suspicious software.

Raycast is a great drop-in replacement for a built-in Spotlight. There is an extension to control zNotch over Raycast's omnibar.

Hide, show and just toggle back and forth your Macbook's Notch using:

• Menubar
• Command line

Notch control over a command line allows to have/build own automation routine.

No strings attached. Ever.
